What is Nitinol alloy? Nitinol alloy are one of many shapes of memory alloys (SMA), which can restore its original shape after deformation. SMA is used for various applications, from consumer electronics to automobiles, aerospace and medical industries. Because they provide designers with the flexibility of incredible alternative to traditional materials, their foothold is strong. Nitinol alloys are very popular in medical equipment due to their biocompatibility and super elasticity. Nitinol alloys are used for manufacturing brackets, wires, stone baskets, filters, needles, dental files.
Development history of Ni-Ti-N alloy At the beginning of the invention, the potential commercial value of Nitinol was recognized. However, due to the difficulty of melting and processing Nitinol and the shortage of funds, its commercialization has been difficult. In the 1990s, these difficulties finally began to be solved. The discovery of the shape memory effect can be traced back to 1932, when Arne Olander, a Swedish researcher, first observed this characteristic in gold-cadmium alloy. This characteristic was also observed in Cu-Zn alloy in the early 1950s.
Characteristics of Ni-Ti-N alloy Shape memory is that when the parent phase of a certain shape is cooled from above Af temperature to below Mf temperature to form martensite, the martensite is deformed at the temperature below Mf and heated to below Af temperature. The material will automatically recover its shape at the parent phase with reverse transformation. The shape memory effect is a thermally induced phase transformation process of Ni-Ti alloy. Sensitivity to temperature change in the mouth: the corrective force of stainless steel wire and CoCr alloy dental orthopedic wire is not affected by the temperature in the mouth. The orthodontic force of superelastic Ni-Ti alloy dental orthodontic wire changes with the change in oral temperature. When the deformation is certain, the correction force increases with the increase in temperature. On the one hand, it can accelerate the movement of teeth because the temperature change in the mouth will stimulate the blood flow in the blood flow stagnation area caused by the capillary stagnation caused by the correction device so that the repair cells can be fully nourished during the tooth movement, and maintain its vitality and normal function. On the other hand, orthodontists cannot accurately control or measure the orthodontic force in the oral environment.
